The 50 best-ever anagrams?

As described previously, this list is an occasional mailing of fantastic
anagrams (perfect rearrangements of letters), either topical, recently
discovered or of other interest.

However, the first issue is really just a teaser: Fifty top-quality
anagrams with no fixed theme or pattern at all. It would be impossible
to confidently assert that these are the best anagrams ever found: we
have several thousand more of similar quality and each of you, I'm sure,
can think of examples that are not on the list but should be.

However, for what it is worth, here is our selection:

"The Best Things in Life are Free" -> "Nail-biting refreshes the feet"
(Donald L. Holmes, 1995) "The End of the World is Nigh" -> "Down this
hole frightened" (Donald
L. Holmes, 1995) "The Meaning of Life" -> "The fine game of nil."
(William Tunstall- Pedoe, 1989)

"The Artist Formerly Known as 'Prince'" -> "No first-rate workmanship
recently!" (William Tunstall-Pedoe, 1996) "Orchestral Manoeuvres in the
Dark" -> "Uncontroversial re-marketed hash!" (Griff Phillips, 1995) "The
late John Lennon, Sir Paul McCartney, the late George Harrison, and
Ringo Starr" -> "In long careers, they all once sang major hits in a
rather talented Northern group." (Larry Brash, 2004)
